Local fords may also be flooded.
Further unsettle weather is forecast over the next 24 hours. We expect river levels to remain high until tomorrow, 29/03/24.

We are closely monitoring the situation.
Please avoid contact with flood water and plan driving routes to avoid low lying roads near rivers, which may be flooded.
This message will be updated by 10:00 on 29/03/24, or as the situation changes.
